Fri 23rd Apr Because stuff like music, stories, characters, are just ideas, while people worked hard to make them, they are still just ideas, people should not be allowed to own ideas, ideas are meant to be shared, improved and expanded, copyright is not actual ownership like owning money, land, a house or a car.Īnd yes, copyright laws state that once the creator of something like music, books, movies and also videogames die, their works become public domain and everyone can use them, but companies can last centuries, longer than people can live, that's why when copyright is owned by a company, the timer for copyright to expire starts after release, they don't have to wait for the company to stop existing.Video games are luxury items, now necessities that we need to survive like medicine or food. They are no even obligated to sell it to us. If the person or people who made something are still alive, it's theirs to do with as they please. We are not entitled to another person's work. And the people who own the rights to it pass away, then, maybe, you'd have a point. Now, if a company lets a franchise die, and it's no longer in any form of active development or sale. We are not just entitled to it once it gets old. They should be able to profit off of it more or less indefinitely. Nintendo and the people working for Nintendo made these games. This is an active series that still regularly gets new entries.
It's not like it's a dead series and everyone who worked on it is long since dead. And they are still actively making games for the series.
